Abstract

The state of the art in electronic textile (e-textile) research are not currently commercially viable/industrially feasible due to technical challenges around the architecture (reliability of exposed electronics, lack of flexibility), data security and production equipment. Hence, it is important for engineers, computer scientists, and textile designers in this field to have a universal understanding whilst collaborating to develop e-textile products. To simplify this, this paper introduces an ongoing design of a novel categorization chart that measures the extent of electronic integration within textiles. This chart can indicate how textiles’ level of electronic integration impacts the its degree of computational intelligence, necessary security, commercial viability and industrial compatibility
